The market is advantages and disadvantages
On October 4, the Ethereum Foundation (EF) announced that it would convert 1,000 ETH (about 670 million yen on 10/612: 13 at the time of writing) from its Ethereum to Stablecoins.
According to the announcement, the inventment will be made via the Dex (decentralized exchange) cow wap. The funded funds will be used to finance research and development, subsidies and donations and to demonstrate the power of Defi.
There were many advantages and disadvantages on X about this announcement.
In particular, there are opinions that instead of selling ETH ($ 4.518.88), they have to borrow Ethereum as collateral with the help of Defi (decentralized finances), and that they have to act with ETH Financial Strategic Companies (DATS) at OTC instead of Retail and Twap.
Ethereum prices have risen by around 10% last week due to bullish technical indicators, increased purchasing by large investors (whale) and expectations for fusaka -upgrades planned for December. At the time of writing it acts for $ 4,538 (around 680,000 yen).
EF had announced that it would sell 10,000 ETH for a centralized exchange in September. The sale is based on EF’s financial policy, which was published in June 2025. The policy states that annual operating costs are held at 15% of the total financial year and that for 2.5 years of reserves will be reserved as a buffer. This introduces a system where ETH is regularly sold to adjust Fiat -Malutaactiva. It has been explained that this time the exchange for Stablecoins is in accordance with this financial policy.
In August, EF also announced that it would temporarily suspend applications for public subsidies to lower the expenditure rates. The ESP team of EF’s Ecosystem Support Program (ESP) has revised its focus in the future, aimed at offering sustainable and meaningful support for the community.
EF is a non -profit organization that supports and invests the entire Ethereum -Ecosystem in a wide range of areas, including protocol development, education and research grants.

@Cowswap’s Twap function, as part of our ongoing work to finance R&D, subsidies and donations, and to emphasize the power of Defi.
